Regularity for the fractional Gelfand problem up to dimension 7

We study the problem (−Δ)^su=λe^u${(-\mathrm{\Delta })}^{s}u=\lambda e^u$ in a bounded domain Ω⊂Rⁿ$\Omega \subset {\mathbb{R}}^n$, where λ   is a positive parameter. More precisely, we study the regularity of the extremal solution to this problem. Our main result yields the boundedness of the extremal solution in dimensions n≤7$n\le 7$ for all s∈(0,1)$s\in (0,1)$ whenever Ω   is, for every i=1,...,n$i=1,...,n$, convex in the _xi$x_i$-direction and symmetric with respect to {_xi=0}$\{x_i=0\}$. The same holds if n=8$n=8$ and s?0.28206...$s?0.28206...$, or if n=9$n=9$ and s?0.63237...$s?0.63237...$. These results are new even in the unit ball Ω=_B1$\Omega =B_1$.
